Because it's what you can afford?

I try not to be a gun snob.  I don't judge someone else's choice of firearms by
my standards.  If someone can't afford anything better than a Hi-Point for home
defense then I commend them for at least opting to use SOMETHING rather than to
become a victim.

Also, to remember, these Ring of Fire mouse guns were intended to be pocket
pistols for personal defense use at a time when extended range time spent
training was an exception rather than the standard.  I don't carry any of my
.25s, not even the 1908 (mainly because the damned thing is so small and my
hands so large that I literally can't close the grip safety and pull the
trigger in a high-stress situation) but one might say that the Grendel P11 I
carry for backup is barely better.
